All these folk claiming it doesn't matter what strikers we sign...

What a load of baloney.

I've lost count how many chances we've missed this season - take So'ton game when Cureton missed 3-4 chances, Rigters 1, Odejayi 1, Macken a couple.

We've missed dozens of great chances this season.

The myth that we never create anything is B*ll*cks.

We didn't create much against Ipswich, but there's plenty of games where we have.

 

Course strikers matter, had we had a real goodun at Wembley we would have equilised when Oddjob missed and I recon gone to the final and who knows then!!

 

Strikers are worth there wait in gold, sneak a goal from nowhere when your getting battered but holding on and sneak you 3 points. get hattricks when your playing well and can become folk heros over night by doing the buisness in local derbys.

Look at Hume's goal against Derby

Won a game from almost nothing.

But apparently we could sign anyone and it wouldn't help.

 

"Won a game from almost nothing. "

I don't think anyone would deny betterstrikers give you more of a chance. </p>

I think some people are saying it doesn't matter who you have up front just to make anexaggerated but validpoint that the lack of goals isn't all the strikers' fault. We have weaknesses everywhere, I'm afraid to say.</p>

But the quality of the balls into the box I've seen hasn't been very good, especially from the flanks. In general,few real killer balls in the final third. Few goals where you think we've just scored a good team goal, e.g., through the midfield, good cross, tap in for striker. As you say, Hume won a game &quot;from almost nothing&quot;. </p>

baloney?

are you in a 80's American Chick Flick ?

 

RE: "Won a game from almost nothing. "

Just have a think at how many chances Odejayi, Rigters, Cureton, Macken etc have missed this season.

Yes every striker misses chances but these have all missed far too many.

A better striker could easily have 12 goals for us this season.

 

RE: baloney?



My Dad uses the word so blame him

 

The quality of our strikers movement is not that good either, thats why they dont get chances, that new bloke never stopped running on tuesday their defenders never knew where he was. Where as a wheelie bin could mark the undroppable Macken out of a game.

 

Yh loads of chances missed. Even when we played poorly against Soton at home we had some chances that a decent striker would have taken. If we get Colace and Anderson in the middle and JCR and Devaney out wide we will create enough for 2 quality strikers to get goals. JCR playing wide is the key. I can't get my head around what SD is doing with him. We do need another CM though (not a defensive one), but we also need a LB and a CB.

 

Simon Davey is masterminding JCR

in that he is putting off all clubs from buying him before the window shuts.

Sweeper Tuesday.

He's in the nets at Bristol.

 

Aye, watching Boggy's goal on Virgin is an indication of the different attitudes of the strikers -the way he doesn't celebrate but charges into the net to get the ball. Macken jogs slowly after him, trying to congratulate him. </p>

A bit of pace and movement up front would definitely not go amiss.</p>

 

Of course it matters. If we'd any that scored with any regularity putting away the chances we create it takes the pressure off our leaky defence. At the moment, we can't score but concede far too easily = nil points. Young Bob Danovitch looks the part, though! Come on Bob!!!
If Istvan was Stan, Boggy has to be Bob!!

 

Paloney. I remember that from when I was a kid!

 

RE: Simon Davey is masterminding JCR

I hope your right. 1 more game then back on the wing.
